MULTI-PLY CUTTING SYSTEM Precise system operations, driven by state-of-the-art motion control communications combine to offer an industry- leading solution for medium- to high-ply cutting of flexible material goods. Eastman's Multi-Ply Cutting (MPC) models have been uniquely crafted to automatically pull stacked material plies from the spreading table to a modular, bristle-block conveyor bed for reciprocating knife cutting of patterns. Eastman's exclusive Intellicut™ knife control software increases the accuracy and integrity of the cut from top to bottom ply. High-strength "take-off fingers" smoothly transition the cut material stacks to a conveyor region dedicated to parts removal and bundling. The MPC models are engineered to perform without failure for accurate and repeated cutting of a variety DESIGN & EFFICIENCY Automatic stack cutting minimizes manual labor and increases material utilization for more cut parts in less time Variable frequency drive control with Eastman's high-efficiency vacuum provides consistent materia compression for the entire job while reducing power Fast and simple replacement of consumable parts, minimizing downtime Touch-screen display and joystick are conveniently located on the cutting gantry for simplified operator use Networked machines can be accessed by Eastman technicians off-site in real-time for immediate Real-time diagnostics monitor all wires and signals, Software algorithms identify components in need of maintenance or replacement and prompt the operator All motion control axes utilize precision rack and pinion drives Variable speed knife control allows for effortless onboard adjustments based on pattern and material requirements Adjustable software setting for blade sharpening AUTOMATED SYSTEMS
